So we've had 3 games and we're all on cloud nine which we've all a right to be of course. Interesting to hear any specific aspect which you're most happy about?
For me it's our midfield three Herrera-Pogba-Matic. They've been superb and not only that I reckon they're as good as any in the PL. Then with Fred hopefully developing and a Mata to throw in when necessary, we're looking good in that dept.
 
If the opposition score I’m no longer shitting myself. I always fancy we’ve got more goals in us. First time I’ve genuinely thought that since about October of the chosen ones season.
 
That it looks like the players actually enjoys playing football, not looked like that in quite a few years.
 
Not thinking this’ll be rubbish again before matches.
 
The upbeat feeling when you look at the bench and players. Such a refreshing change.
I know the results have helped that but even so, it’s such a change.
 
I'm finding it much more enjoyable now that we start games by going 1-0 up instead of 1-0 down.
 
Summed up by rashfords assist yesterday really, he doesn’t even attempt the first part of that let alone the flip-flap then the perfect ball across.

I guess freedom of expression is my answer.
 
One thing that pleases me is seeing our players play as a cohesive team rather than a bunch of individuals. Everyone is on the same wave length, it's been a joy to watch! :D
 
Good observation. Herrera in particular I feel is showcasing how well rounded he is as a midfielder in this particular setup looking as good as he did in his Atletic Bilbao days when we all purred over his highlight reel. Matic and Pogba I think most would not deny their obvious quality but Herrera has a lot of doubters. So great to see him playing a role that helps him shine.
 
We're deserving our goals. Not just a flurry of ones we use to score like last season. The attitude of the players has been fantastic.
 
The near instantaneous change from people criminally under rating our players, to actually realising we have some exceptional talent at our disposal.

It's incredible how quickly people changed when the mood was changed.

"We actually have good players?!"
:wenger:
 
The fact that we're steamrolling teams again....and we've STILL got Lukaku and Sanchez to fully integrate back into this new setup. Happy days! :drool:

Half the forum - oooh let's get Pogba out..he's a disgrace, he says stuff like we don't attack enough grrr

3 games later, 4 goals, stack of assists and looks better than in any other 3 game period in the previous 2 1/2 years!
 
We're not shit anymore. At least for 3 matches.

In all seriousness.

1) Mood
2) Positivity from manager and players
3) Joy to watch again
4) Scoring goals
5) Caf is a happier place, for the most part

The fact that people are saying Lukaku and Sanchez as a positive now!
 
Manchester United.

Everything is suddenly working like under SAF; players are enjoying playing for this club again, in the last 3 games we saw the Rashford and Martial we had under LVG; fans are happy, SAF is smiling again, I'm an happy man, I'm now enjoying my club again.

I'm saying it again, we wasted 2 and half seasons with that fraud of a manager and he hindered the progression Martial and Rashford :mad:.
 
Going into the last 10 minutes relaxed and confident the game is won
 
The manager is finally backed in the transfer market.
 
Our players playing like they are enjoying it, and looking like the players we know they are: some of the best young talent in the world right now.

:lol:

I love our attitude towards football matches. Whether Ole is actually good enough to manage us or is tactically got something about him, feck knows. What he has is what many of us as fans feel should be the Manchester United mindset. Play on the front foot. Look to entertain. Look to attack. Play aggressively. That's all I want right now. And he's delivered that shift that was required wherever this experiment goes.
 
OGS banging on about how good the players are and how top class the squad is. Night and day from Mourinho spending nearly half a billion and still bleating on about what he hasn't got.
 
Confidence is back. Sure the opposition we played are pretty poor, but we have the belief and allowance to play forward and get in behind, with support from midfield. Ole is managing the dressing room well which is what we needed. Tactically remains to be seen what he can do when we play better opposition.

Our squad is still an Arsenal/Chelsea - 4th at best. Not getting too carried away, but we are playing better and showing how we should play.

Still short a few proper leaders, very noticeable at the back.

But I look forward to watching us play again - that is huge.
 
I have been confident of winning games like these for the first time this season.

Everything he has done so far is perfect.
 
That the club doesn't have a manager who will blame everyone but himself and whenever he gets challenged will go back to his glory days to avoid taking responsibilities for the fact that he is outdated.
 
More seriously, the players are clearly enjoying themselves which is the all point of a game. They enjoy themselves and we enjoy watching them, the rest isn't that important.
